Mathew, you did not look close and are just stepping into a train,
This project has not yet published any files. The given files are there
since 2010 and use firefox. Didn ´t you realise that?
since 2 years there has been no idea about this and we just changed the
website to an open source template.
that has a featurelist of the qt browser, which could be added. If you read
up the latest news on this list, your tests are wrong
there is no DNS leak, the feature of the IP address of the website shown in
the site header is a default disabled feature.
Tor should address 30 % webkit users of all browser engines to have a check
for Tor.
so this is your url to go:
